FOR 1877.


The marked favor with which this Monthly has been received during the first year of its existence, insures its success during the coming year, and strengthens our determination to make it still more worthy of public favor.

While preserving its historic character, it will contain many articles of deep popular interest.

The organ of the Southern Historical Society, and published and controlled by its Executive Committee, it will draw from the rich collection in our archives some rare and important MSS. and documents.

Many of the ablest of our Confederate leaders have promised us papers of rare interest and historic value, and we propose to have during the coming year exhaustive discussions of some of the most important battles and campaigns of the war. We shall publish a number of important official reports, which have never been in print, and of some of which we possess the only copies extant. In a word, we propose to make our Papers interesting to all lovers of historic truth, and simply invaluable to those who desire to see vindicated the name and fame of those who made our great struggle for constitutional freedom.

We can supply back numbers for 1876 in two beautifully bound volumes.

We furnish these Papers free of charge to members of the Society who have paid their annual fees, and to other subscribers at

THREE DOLLARS PER ANNUM.

As our Monthly will go into every State of the South, and circulate among our very best people, it offers rare inducements to advertisers. We will insert a few advertisements at the following rates:

  12 mos. 6 mos. 3 mos. 1 mo.
1 page $75  $40  $25  $10
½ page 40  25  15  6
¼ page 25  15  3

We desire to secure everywhere suitable agents to canvass for members of the Society or subscribers to our Papers. Address

Secretary Southern Historical Society, Richmond, Va.
